The definition of how we work is changing every day. More than ever, companies are waking up to the idea that working remotely is a viable option. Just as the pandemic is extending the temp home office into a long-term solution, several jobs require a physical hands-on workforce. Yet, as more companies shut down temporarily or permanently, you might find yourself looking for a new job.
Here are some of the best places you can put your skills to good use and earn a decent wage working digitally for top employers.
Amazon
Besides having tons of brick and mortar operations, Amazon also has many virtual locations across the United States, Costa Rica, and even Europe. At many of these places, positions available range from completely remote ones to those that need you to live near a regional office or make the trip to work on occasion.
Multiple positions are entirely remote, but others require you to live near a regional office or periodically travel. Full-time remote jobs listed for the United States are registered with the phrase ‘US, Virtual’ in front of the Job ID number. They also usually don’t have a state abbreviation like CA or VA attached to them.
Kelly Services
Another popular online staffing agency is Kelly Services. They connect independent contractors to some of the largest companies worldwide. There are many temporary and direct hire positions open here with some even at a manager-level. Many openings are temporary, although some employers will hire directly as well.
iSoftStone
iSoftStone is a global data solutions and services company that offers all kinds of part-time and full-time positions. Looking through job descriptions will tell you exactly what the necessary skills are and what to expect. While there are some fully remote positions here, it’s usually limited to the first six months. Most often, after this, some in-person work is needed at a field office.
Kaplan
Kaplan allows educators to teach courses or tutor students online. It also provides tutoring for university students. While many classes need part-time instructors, these usually include a pay range and weekly hour requirement.
So, if you are looking for your next job opportunity, these are a great place to start looking today.
